n=6

Explanation:

Our main objective is to separate the n from the rest of the numbers. There's two ways to do this, first way is:

  1. Distribute 4 into the parenthesis to get 4n+40=64. Then subtract both sides by 40 to get 4n=24. Lastly divide both sides by 4 to get n=6.
  2. Another way to do this is by straightly dividing 4 on both sides. You then get n+10=16. You then could subtract 10 on both sides to get n=6 which nets the same results.
